Hmm. I typically don't go after games with less than an 85MC unless the game just speaks to me. And with no prior association with the series, I have trouble pushing myself to get it.

That's not a good way to go about it imo.
An 85 for a story driven game means something very different than an 85 for a FIFA/Madden game.
Of course most gamers know what a FIFA/Madden game is like, but when you don't really know what the game is like, that's when you should read or watch a review. And I reckon you can't know what Yakuza is like without investing some time in finding out, because there's really nothing else like it on the market.

A 75 review for a different type of game you've never played can sound much more interesting than a 90 review for a rehash of a franchise you've played to death.

I was talking about the beginning of his review where he lays out all the negatives right away. Most of them are problems you'd only have with the game if you were an average western consumer. His review was actually pretty positive 

I know. I was just sharing a funny clip.

Oops sorry, I misunderstood. Lol, those segments are legendary xD
